My idle varies between 650 and 900 rpm and is a bit rough (The steering wheel is quite shaky), but as soon as I give it some gas (Just a LITTLE, around 950-1000rpm or more) it becomes a lot smoother and the steering wheel stops shaking.
I was wondering if changing the fuel filter and reseting the ECU could solve the problem? Thanks! This post has been edited by dudeofchaos: Oct 12, 2010 - 11:34 PM |

Check your plugs, and clean/replace them if needed. How old is your iginition system?Also your timing might be screwed up.

I changed them a couple of months ago, it was still hapenning when I just replaced them. Maybe I should change my wiring set. QUOTE (HectortheRican @ Oct 13, 2010 - 2:07 AM) You should be able to adjust the idle speed via a small screw on the TB. I read that in my Haynes repair manual. What does ''TB'' stand for? Throttle Body I guess? QUOTE (fgvillegas @ Oct 13, 2010 - 1:20 AM) you could try that. it works sometimes. you could also try to clean the throttle by spraying carb cleaner or something similar. Yeah, I should clean it. Is it hard to do? This post has been edited by dudeofchaos: Oct 13, 2010 - 1:17 AM |
